Panorama City, 2011.

The Samurai Power Rangers looked on in horror as Master Xandred absorbed Dayu into his being. The true 18th head of the Samurai Rangers, Lauren Shiba, took a deep breath and hopped onto a nearby highrise. The time had finally come to put all the blood, sweat and tears to use, and use the sealing symbol. Through all the loneliness and isolation, Lauren knew that if she could even ATTEMPT to write out the Sealing Symbol, it would ALL be worth it. Just then, there was a loud engine sound, echoing throughout the land.

The rangers looked to the source of the sound. Off in the distance, a purple and red 2020 modified Audi Quattaro tore across the sand at full blast, kicking up a massive cloud of dust behind its back tires. Inside the cockpit, the driver aimed the hunk of steel and oil towards the horde of moogers. With the press of the nitrous button, an excessive amount of fuel was unleashed in a single blast, the car slammed into the moogers, slamming them sky high.

Finally, the car came to a screeching halt. The driver door flew open, and out stepped a very tall, and very beautiful woman. Her skin was flawless, her stature was a proud 6 feet 4 inches. Wavey, raven colored hair flowed down past her back. She wore a dark purple midriff and matching tight pants with red boots. Her eyes were a piercing red that sent shivering down everyone's spines. Finally, she opened her mouth to speak. "So this is 2011. You must be Xandred," she said.

"That's MASTER Xandred to you, motherfucker! And who might you be?"

"I am Kira. Kira executioner. Gotta say, that's a nice sword. Get a good look at it, because I'm about to bust it up. And to be clear, when I say "it", I mean your putrid face!" Kira declared proudly.

If he could, Xandred would have a devilish smirk on his red visage. "Is that so? Alright then. I'll be more than happy to crush some arrogant wench!" The Nighlock Lord snarled.

Kira wore a sinister grin on her face like makeup as she said, "You're the one who'll be getting crushed!"

"Hey,Kira, is it? You need to run, like...NOW!" Mia Watanabe, the Pink Samurai Ranger called out.

"Relax, Pink Ranger! Kira has this!" Another voice called out. The rangers looked to where the voice was coming from. The car's passenger side opened up to reveal a woman with crimson red eyes, golden hair and translucent alabaster skin. She sported a white and red top and matching latex-like, v-line pants. "You can call me Bella Vampren! News flash, I'm not as strong as Kira yet, but I could still kick that tomato face's ass with relative ease!"

Kira slowly, but with purpose, towards Xandred.

"What are you doing?! You're gonna get torn apart!" Lauren Shiba called out. Her pleas however fell deaf ears.

Xandred inhaled sharply before unleashing a devastating "NETHERWIND!", but Kira barely budged. Kira gingerly adjusted her hair before saying, "My turn!", before shooting out a foot, launching Xandred into a nearby rock formation, much to the ranger's shock. Jayden Shiba's breath caught in his throat.

"W-what?" Inside her helmet, Lauren's eyes practically bulged out of her skull.

Xandred quickly got to his feet, but faster than a fingersnap, Kira closed the distance and placed the Nighlock Lord in a headlock and kneed him in the sternum multiple times, each blow being more devastating than the last. Kira sntched Master X's sword from his grip and inspected it. "Good grief, I take it back. Up close, this sword is tacky as all hell, although...that's the least of your worries right now. Xandred got up and tried to strike Kira, bit he hit nothing but air. "Y'know, maybe if you'd spend more time training, and less time sitting on your ass like a drunkard, your punches would hit closer to home. Aright, I've fucked around long enough. Time to die!" Kira parried the next strike, grabbed Xandred by the throat, and slammed him into the ground.

"What the hell is going on?" The true red ranger suddenly felt a lump rapidly growing in her chest, then her knees became like that of gelatin as her breath began to quicken.

Finally, the mysterious Kira Kichwais took to the skies like a dark angel. Before the nighlock leader could process what was happening, Kira crossed her hands in a triangle position, aiming straight toward Xandred. Inhaling air into her lungs until they were full to bursting, she called out her final attack.

"5...4...3...2...1...BLACK HOLE DRIVER!"

In an instance, she ushered forth a gargantuan purple column of energy that quickly barreled down towards the nighlock lord. Before anybody could process, the beam fully engulfed Master Xandred. In an instant, every single cell in his body was eradicated, then in a sudden flash of fire, the rangers were knocked back, tearing their outfits right off of their bodies, save Lauren, who now fell to her knees, struggling to pull air into her lungs. After much coughing and wheezing, the dust finally cleared, revealing a large crater, and in the center of the crater, a large jagged glass pillar. Upon witnessing what just went down, Kevin, Mia, Emily, Mike and Antonio had all seemed to channel Joseph Joestar as they all cried out, "OH MY GOD!"

"That lady just beat Xandred like it was NOTHING!" Antonio, the Gold Ranger.

"Who is that lady?" Jayden pondered as Lauren proceeded to lose all control of her bladder, a pool of yellow fluid rapidly growing underneath her.

The House of the Shiba Clan

The Samurai Rangers all sat around the table, still struggling to process the curbstomp battle that had just occurred.

"Y'know. Something just occurred to me," Mike began, "Sure, we have no idea who that lady was, but the nighlock are gone now, so I'm not complaining!"

It was then that Lauren entered the room, still morphed and head drooped down. "Lauren? Is everything okay?" Said Jayden.

Lauren was visibly shaking. "I..I…" That's when she finally demorphed. When she looked up, her nose was runny, her eyes were as red as the ranger, and tears were streaking down her cheeks.

"18…" she muttered, just barely above a whisper.

"It took 18 generations of Samurai to beat the nighlock...and some rando just dogwalks Master Xandred in less than 2 minutes…."

"L-Lauren?"

"I am in my 20s...a lot of significant events can happen in that time...birthdays...holidays...wedding..and FUNERALS. I never got to experience any of it!"

Lauren Shiba, Age 9…

"Lauren, you must ALWAYS train. Once you seal away Xandred, you'll finally be happy!"

Lauren Shiba, Age 10…

Lauren's had been going all day, her knuckles were bloodied to the bone! Through labored breaths, Lauren started kicking the practice dummy. Soon enough, her ankles were bleeding.

Lauren Shiba, Age 12…

"What's going on?!" Lauren said frantically, "Why am I bleeding down there?!"

Lauren Shiba, Age 14…

Lauren sat sobbing over torn up sheets that have been strone all over the floor. "Dammit! I'll never master the Sealing Symbol!"

"Lauren, you mustn't give up! You WILL master the Sealing Symbol. The whole world is depending on you!"

Lauren Shiba, Age 16…

"The world is depending on me!"

Lauren Shiba, Age 18…

"The world is depending on me!"

Lauren Shiba, Age 20…

"The world is depending on ME!"

Lauren Shiba…

Lauren's tears now flowed freely. "All those years of isolation...my blood...sweat...tears...ALL FOR NOTHING! I WISH I WAS NEVER BORN!"
